Seems like a good place to contemplate life! A lovely photograph and wonderful landscape.

Thanks for the compliment. The stone was installed on the moorland ridge overlooking my house over 5000 years ago.

Not a bird shot exactly. But I like how he is all alone up there in a blue sky. A lone traveler.
Straight out of the camera, uncropped. Just resized for the board.

Kavala old town. Shot the picture from the car, as parking inside the Old Town is only for residents with permit.

I can’t claim to be a botanical expert - hence the precision title !
But I think the fluff is the result of last year’s Old Man’s Beard , ( a creeper weed ) , and the tree behind is a hazel.

Hah - did some googling :
Clematis vitalba (also known as old man's beard and traveller's joy) is a shrub of the family Ranunculaceae.

Old man's beard? Good name, tree certainly looks like it!

A great shot, inphoto. Looks like a great location too. I am wondering about those houses though, as they seem to be very close to the edge.
